I once read somewhere that if you are waiting until you "FIND the time", you never will. We all "MAKE the time" for what we really want to do. Another quote that has often helped me prioritize all the many tasks is this:
"We must not let the urgent things displace the important things."
So to answer your question... I don't have a set schedule except that I try to keep Mondays clear for business because of weekend sales. Other than that, I try to go with the flow, MAKE the time and not let my life be ruled by all those "urgent" things. If my son has to play baseball with a hole in his sock (right in front where everyone saw it!) because I didn't get to the sporting goods store that day to get another pair, it's not the end of the world. There's another game next week and he'll have new socks for that one and people will still think I'm a good Mom. The urgent thing was buying new socks, the important thing was being at the game. I have to constantly remind myself to sort that stuff out and keep it in perspective!

I always thought when my kids grew up it would get easier - it does not! I don't have a schedule. I just tackle each day as it comes. I keep a running "to do" list in my head and it's working so far but frazzles the heck out of me sometimes. I would like a breather though. I run my husband's office from home remotely and tend to my crafting and online sales as well. I'm very active with my children's families, keep daily tabs on my aging Mom and am grandmom to the horse I bought for my granddaughter (had 2 till recently); much time and attention needed with this venture too. Oh and I can't forget my constant companion, my Great Dane, Cleo and her Rotweiller brother Chopper (hubby's); both of which are more work but so worth it. Summer is almost here now and that spells out a different "Chopper". My husband is fanatic about motorcycles and the lure to ride "Chopper" on every day the sun shines is pressing for me around here too. Quite frankly, 24 hrs in a day is not enough for me on anyday but I won't give up my online selling for anything. It has been a challenge that I've put so much into and is turning out very great indeed. I just need to be careful not to try to squeeze anything else in or I surely will go crazy -
